This app named Handwriting Fonts for Samsung, Oppo and HTC phones is acting like a malware. Whenever I try to uninstall it, my phone restarts (or probably reboots) and the app doesn't get uninstalled. When I checked the reviews, there were other people too having the same issue.

I have tried uninstalling it from Google Play also. I have tried forcing stopping it; clearing data and then uninstalling it; using safe mode to uninstall it. No progress.

This question came from our site for computer enthusiasts and power users.

Enable Developer mode and Android Debug Bridge (adb) on your device and connect to to a PC with adb tools installed. Then use adb logcat to see if there is a log entry that explains why the device is rebooting.

When using ADB, you could also try adb uninstall com.monotype.android.font.glad.handwritten. As ADB has "elevated privileges" (not quite root, but still more than "average"), this might have a chance. Apart from that: Have you installed the app, or did it come pre-installed on your device?
